How the estimate is made
The estimate for 3 Bracewell Drive is modelled from its 117 m² EPC floor area, its 4 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in HX3 5HY. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.

About 3 Bracewell Drive
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
3 Bracewell Drive is a three-bedroom detached house in Halifax (HX3 5HY). It has a recorded floor area of 117 m² (around 1259 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (September 2014) shows a C (score 72). The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 81). The latest certificate is from September 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 117 m² the property is well over the postcode median (84 m² across 15 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Last sale on file: £230,000 in March 2021. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2015. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2000–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at 3.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £283,000 is 23% above the 2021 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£183/sq ft) was about 215.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode.

Start your researchHow to read this page
Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 3 Bracewell Drive is modelled from its 117 m² EPC floor area, its 4 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in HX3 5HY. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 4 sales are recorded for 3 Bracewell Drive. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 3 Bracewell Drive was lodged in September 2014 at band C and expired in September 2024, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 3 Bracewell Drive. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 16 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 30 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from HX3 5HY, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 3 Bracewell Drive is in council tax band B. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
